InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
August 9-10-11, 2024
The focus for today is:
I am beginning to see the needs of the whole
and to direct my resources to meet those needs.
Today's inspiration was written by Eileen Caddy MBE and David Earl Platts, PhD.:
Humanitarian Albert Schweitzer observed, “I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.”
True service is being who we are at all times and expressing as best we can our inherent transpersonal qualities, including unconditional love.
The process of evolution engages us all to be conscious co-operators with it, and so we begin to see the needs of the whole and direct our resources to meet those needs.

Today's inspiration was adapted from the InnerSelf.com article:
Unconditional Love Is A Way Of Serving One Another, Humanity and The World
Written by Eileen Caddy MBE and David Earl Platts, PhD.

This is Marie T. Russell, co-publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of being aware of the needs of others (today and every day)
Comment from Marie: The self-help movement has focused on self-love and taking care of ourselves. And this is an important part of the process as one can't give from an empty basket. And now we must move on to the next step in our evolution, and that is to also focus on the needs of others less fortunate. We now choose to give of ourselves, unconditionally, in order to make the world a better place.
Our focus for today: I am beginning to see the needs of the whole and to direct my resources to meet those needs.

Learning to Love
by Eileen Caddy and David Earl Platts.
In this simple yet insightful guide, Eileen Caddy and David Earl Platts detail the down-to-earth practicalities of exploring feelings, attitudes, beliefs, and past experiences that block us from loving and from receiving love. They show how bringing more love into our lives is not a mystery but often a journey back to ourselves and our core values. The authors examine the feelings of acceptance, trust, forgiveness, respect, opening up, and taking risks, among others, within a framework of compassionate understanding and non-judgment. Deceptively simple yet profound exercises, meditations, and visualizations support the reader in examining their inner world and implementing these vital concepts into their lives.
